Well you don't know how manufacturers obtain card of said capacity. If for a 2GB card you need 4 512KB chips you may loose capacity in this way. (may because really I'm guessing here). Better card will use only one device but I don't think speaking in volume, that most cards are made from only one device.
Moreover, flash has AFAIK an automatic bad clusters automatic reallocation feature. It may be slightly different from device to device (ie, different reserved space and so different actually usable space for storage). Same for hard drive in fact. -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille ---------------------- K10D,Z1,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
